Aircrew who took part in the famous ‘Operation Black Buck’ missions will take part, including the Captain of the Vulcan, Martin Withers, who flew the first bombing mission to the Falkland Islands in May 1982 and Victor Captain Bob Tuxford.

It will be a very special occasion for us to have the opportunity to acknowledge the bravery and dedication of these men.

– David Walton, Organiser.

One of the Victor aircrafts, which took part in these missions, will be carrying out a ‘fast taxi’ run as part of the show. She will be operated by the crew who flew her in the South Atlantic to support the ‘Black Buck’ missions.
